If they could play 4 quarters they might make the playoffs. This week they played the 1st two, the cardinals game they played the last 2.

I agree.

Kubiak's game management still puzzles me. It seems everytime we get a good lead, he wants to sit back and attempt to just burn up the clock rather than pour on the points. It doesn't work. If you are shutting a team down and putting up 21 points in the first half, DON'T CHANGE A THING IN THE 2ND HALF!

IMO the Texans won't make the playoffs and this will be Kubiak and his staff's last year. They could have easily lost to the Niners yesterday. Gotta play 60 minutes of football, not 30, and to me that largely falls on the coaches.

Sadly, I don't think Kubiak will be fired if we are able to win 9 games. Playoffs or not.

Sucks for the team, because I think every loss this year so far falls on the coach's bad decisions during crunch time and inability to prepare for a game or make proper adjustments.

Ross, I think Bob McNair expects nothing short of the playoffs. If they don't make it he'll fire Kubiak IMO.

Totally agree here, except for that Jets game, that was just sad, but we have been in every game since then, and the other two losses could have, and in all reality should have been wins. Two times we've been on the goal line late in the game and NEED to get into the endzone, and Kubiak for some reason thinks the running game is all of a sudden going to work rather than putting it in Schaubs hands.

This playing a half of football, then chilling out the other half isn't working either. Games where you are up 21 points shouldn't end up in you being on the edge of your seat hoping you can hold a 3 point lead.

Well, we finally won 3 in a row. As usual, Cushing showed why he was the best defensive pick in this year's draft.
Props to Kubiak for getting his team straightened out for the second half and for benching Slaton. If watching from the sidelines doesn't inspire Slaton to protect the football, I don't know what will.

Owen Daniels likely out for the season...F#CK!

It was painful to see Owen Daniels go down. Cushing is on fire this season. I think we could have avoided a couple sacks due to some poor blocking but overall the game was fun to watch. I really hope Slaton will learn to protect the ball better. I'm losing patience with him.

Cushing is a badass and raises the bar for Diles and Ryans. Both of those lb's need to step it up. I agree, Slaton needs to ride the pine for a while. He has hurt the Texans this year in several key offensive plays. Holding on to the ball is probably the most important aspect of the game. If you cant do this then you dont need to be playing.

Lmao!!!


jacoby jones has some stones

texans punt returner jacoby jones is doing something i’ve never seen before in pre-game warmups.


typically before games punters and kickers are out on the field first to get a last gauge on how the weather conditions are affecting their kicks to inform the coaching staff.

They often punt ***** to their equipment managers who retrieve the ***** and get them back to the long snapper at the other end of the field as quickly as possible.

But their was an interloper today on the field. Texans punt returner jacoby jones ventured to the bills side of the field and began catching brian moorman’s punts in pre-game warmups.

I’ve got to give him credit to trying to prepare for what he’ll see in the game. It’s a bit of a bold move, but no one chased him out of there. Jones will be that much more ready for a moorman punt.

Ball being fumbled + defender laying out of bounds and touching the ball = DEAD BALL!

Bullshit call cost us 7 points.
